There are a number of ways to forward site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is oftentimes preferred. In contrast to parking a domain, a URL redirection is feasible only if the domain in question is hosted. What this means in simple terms is that you may still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you may create e-mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This sort of feature has numerous practical uses - if you want to switch your domain, you can redirect the visitors, but the e-mail messages with the old one will still be active in case you are communicating with clients or partners. If you have two identical Internet sites and you would like to rebuild one of them, you may redirect the traffic to the other Internet site so as to avoid losing potential customers, while you'll still be able to access the administration area for the first site and develop it.

URL Redirector in Cloud Website Hosting

When you host your Internet sites with our company and you have a cloud website hosting package, you will be able to use our URL redirection tool to forward the site visitors from any domain and subdomain, or from a subfolder under any of them, to a different Internet address. This process takes a few easy steps through an intuitive interface, so you may create a redirection even when you don't have any previous experience. You will simply have to pick a domain address or a subdomain through a drop-down list, to select the folder in which the redirection shall be set up (the root folder or a subfolder), and then to type the URL where the visitors must be forwarded to. For more advanced users, there are also options to pick the redirection type (permanent or temporary) and the method (direct or match). Any redirection you set up can be deactivated from the same section of the CP, in case you do not need it anymore.
